Conjoined is a Horror Movie by Joe Grisaffi.

Stanley (Tom Long) is a formerly lonely man who has finally met the love of his life, Aline (Michelle Ellen Jones). Aline has decided to move in with him, and asks to bring along her sister, Alisa (Keefer Barlow), to whom she is very close.

So close, in fact, they're actually Conjoined Twins.

Well, Stanley loves Alina too much to let that sour their relationship, so he lets her into his life also. However, it becomes more complicated when he also discovers that Alisa's also a murderer. Now he needs to find out how to get his relationship with Alina to survive Alisa.

The movie was released on September 27th, 2013. A Video Game Adaptation for the Atari 2600 was funded on Kickstarter.


Conjoined contains examples of:

  • 555: Alisa's number is 555-4657.
  • Ambiguous Syntax: When Stanley says that it's a good idea to separate Alina and Alisa, we get this conversation.
    Jerry: Well I have good ideas too, man. You ever hear about my beer coozie you can fuck?
    Stanley: I think I wanna do it.
    Jerry: What, the beer coozie or the other thing?
  • Asshole Victim: Alisa's second intended date. When he decided to try and photograph her and her sister and stick it on the net, Alisa rams his head into the floor until he's dead.
  • Axe-Crazy: Alisa sometimes shows signs of this.
  • Blood from the Mouth: Stanley has some when he comes to in the basement he and Jerry separated Alina and Alisa in.
  • Censor Bar: When Alisa is doing it with Courtney, a tattoo on Courtney's buttocks is digitally covered up by an American Flag.
  • Conjoined Twins: Alina and Alisa.
  • Depraved Bisexual: Alisa, considering she's seen dating three guys and one girl, and offs them all.
  • Disposing of a Body: Usually by cutting them up, putting them in cheap dollar store garbage bags, and dumping them on the side of the road.
  • Double Date: Stanley and Alina have one with Jerry and Alisa when trying to get the latter two to hook up.
  • "Eureka!" Moment: Stanley has one when Jerry asks him "What if they can force them to separate?", giving Stanley the idea to have him and Jerry perform the separation surgery himself.
  • Groin Attack: When Billy refers to Alisa as a freak one too many times while she's giving him a blowjob, she bites it off.
    • When torturing Stanley after he and Jerry separated her and Alina, she may have stabbed him in the crotch with a knife.
  • Handshake Substitute: Stanley and Jerry do a fist bump, only for their fists to get stuck together. When they manage to separate, they have a good, long laugh about it.
  • Instant Sedation: When Stanley has Alisa drink wine with a sleeping pill he mixed into it, she's out like a light almost immediately after one sip.
  • Laughing Mad: Alisa sometimes gets this way when committing murder.
  • Off with His Head!: Alisa kills Courtney by decapitating her, which isn't shown onscreen. We DO, however, see her severed head, and headless body.
  • One-Word Title: Conjoined, naturally.
  • Pre-Mortem One-Liner: Courtesy of Stanley before he kills Alisa.
    Alisa: (to Alina) Why did you let him do this to us? Why did you choose him over me? Why?
    Stanley: Love. You psycho.
